This ’67 flick of John, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr is iconic for so many reasons, one of the most notable being what John is wearing.

The look exceeds all fashion expectations (especially when juxtaposed with the more dressed-down approaches of Paul and Ringo) and the mullet is just the icing on the cake to complete the look.

It’s evident that John Lennon was somewhat of a Renaissance man, adept not only in music and the arts but in fashion, too.
